Rom 5:1, Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
Rom 5:2, By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

Gal 3:23, But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
Gal 3:24, Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
Gal 3:25, But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.

Gal 2:16, Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

For it is not the hearers of the Torah who are righteous before God, but the doers of the Torah who will be justified.
Romans 2:13

You're conflating the commandments which are for our benefit (e.g. "The Sabbath was made FOR man...etc"), and the law that was "added because of transgressions". It is sin and death that result from transgressions of the law, not by fulfilling the law.



Sorry, but God is no respecter of persons. The Jews do not have a monopoly on sin.

You do not even know what sin is, for sin existed before the Torah of Moses was given, which is why the Torah of Moses was given, for the sake of transgression, so that through the transgression of the Torah sin may be punished, for the Torah reveals all that is sin, yet where there is no Torah there cannot be transgression, and if there is no transgression, then no there can be no charge for transgression, even though sin still exists, for all are enslaved to sin from conception. Yet if you discard the Torah that reveals all that is sin, through its commands, you discard the manual that says, "do this" or "do not do that". You have removed the foundation of everything the prophets and apostles taught, including what the Messiah himself taught. The Torah is still binding, and required to be obey.

Who are you responding to? Could you provide some context so we know what you're talking about? I would assume that you're responding to something I posted because I was the most recent reply to your op, but I'm not avoiding or ignoring or doing away with the Mosaic law either.

Then if you are indeed affirming that the Torah of Moses must still be obeyed, then these words of rebuke do not apply to you, do they?

Sin is "the transgression of the law". You cannot sin against a law that doesn't exist. It matters not one bit that the law was codified later. It exists eternally as it is synonymous with God's will.

which is why the Torah of Moses was given, for the sake of transgression,

Nonsense, you don't even know what your own Torah says. Jesus himself would ask you "Haven't you read what it says in the book of Deuteronomy? Read it for yourself. You are conflating the law that was given for our benefit with the law that was "a witness against us". Deuteronomy 31:26 clearly distinguishes between the two laws. There are the tablets of STONE which were placed INSIDE the ark, and then there were the "handwritten ordinances that were against us" which were place BESIDE the ark of the covenant. Learn the difference, and you will be well on your way to understanding what Paul is really saying.

The fact is that Cain knew he had transgressed Gods' law. Noah knew that everyone around him was wicked, and that can only be established by God's standard of righteoussness which is his law. The law existed before sin, and necessarily had to. Satan couldn't have sinned against God if there was no standard by which to transgress it in the first place. You can't transgress laws that don't exist, therefore the law necessarily had to exist before sin.

Very true, and yet it is just as true that none of them are justified by the law.

Except that Yeshuah said, "I did not come to abolish the Torah" and "until heaven and earth passes away not one jot or one tittle will pass away from the Torah, and Paul said, "do we therefore nullify the Torah by this belief? Surely not, we uphold the Torah" and "in the Torah is the embodiment of knowledge and truth", so clearly it is you who is deceived following after a false messiah that only exists in your own imagination, not the true Messiah, blessed be he, who taught obedience to the Torah of Moses, and belief in his own name, which is Yeshuah, for he was sent by God to die for us to atone for our sins, and also to perfect us through his blood, which the blood of animals was never able to do. But of course, if you live your whole life believing the Torah is abolished, or also completely fulfilled as some of you like to mutter, you will live your whole life in disobedience to the commands of God no different than the unbeliever who already disobeys the Torah, and will thus, end up in the same place as them. You are an ignorant people, rejecting the Law of God, and you are also stubborn, and for that reason you bring condemnation upon your own heads. How much longer will I continue wasting my time reasoning with you people on this forum? We shall see. I am patient, and also hopeful, that perhaps one of you will come to their senses and understand that what I am saying is indeed the truth.
Jesus did not come to abolish the law....
The law is good.

Have the ceremonial laws been abolished?
Have YOU sacrificed any lambs lately?
If so,,,where?

And could you please explain what
Mathew 5:20 means?
20“For I say to you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.

Oh,,,and don't be so arrogant as to believe that only YOU know what fulfill means...
just because MANY Protestants do not understand this word..does not mean that no one does.

It's quite easy to understand once one rightly divides the word. You seem to be arguing with yourself. I 'm certainly not discarding the Torah.
Why are you NOT discarding the Torah?
Did Jesus not fix many misquotes in the Torah?
Are you also a fundamentalist Jewish person?

The law existed before sin, and necessarily had to. Satan couldn't have sinned against God if there was no standard by which to transgress it in the first place. You can't transgress laws that don't exist, therefore the law necessarily had to exist before sin.

Of course you can sin without a Torah, why else do you suppose the men of Sodom were called "sinners", if not because they were in grave sin, even before the Torah of Moses was given? Sin and transgression are two different things. While a command may not have been given to reveal something to be sin, which can then be transgressed, sin can still be committed, because sin is falling short of being what we were made to be, the representation of God. This is why sins are typically things contrary to nature, or things that bring disharmony and disorder to creation, and also why the Gentiles who do not have the Torah have their own consciences that speak against them, because they naturally know what is good and evil, and their consciences serve as a Torah in themselves. And so, sin existed before the Torah of Moses, and the Torah of Moses was given to reveal what sin is, through its commands. The book of the Torah includes the ten commandments, yet a distinction is made between commands that came directly from God and the commands that came through Moses, which are all, nonetheless, commands of God, which came to the sons of Israel in different forms, to all reveal what sin is. "You shall not murder" reveals that murder is sin, within the commands that were written by the finger of God. And a "man shall not wear women's clothing" is another command not written by the finger of God, yet also reveals that men wearing women's clothing is indeed also sin. Both commands are binding. However, there is indeed also a distinction between "shadows" of the Torah and commands that are not shadows, such as the Passover, which is a "shadow" of the Torah, for under the new covenant we are not required to sacrifice a lamb every year, for the Messiah, our Passover lamb has been sacrificed, hence "shadow of the Torah", which Paul explained to let no man judge us by, for the "shadows" of the Torah are not required for us to keep under the new covenant, because they merely pointed to realities found in the Messiah. But the command of the Torah that says, "you shall make fringes in the four corners of your garment" is not a "shadow" of the Torah, it must still be obeyed plainly as the command was given.

As such, before the Torah of Moses was given there was indeed a "Torah", but not the written Torah of Moses, but the oral Torah, which came from Adam, for the "knowledge of good and evil" that Adam received was indeed knowledge of Torah, which was then passed down to generations after him, which is why Abraham was commended for "obeying the Torah", even before it was given to Moses, in written form. And before Adam transgressed, the only Torah that existed was this, "you shall not eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil", for "Torah" simply means "instruction", and that was the only instruction given to man in the beginning, and through the transgression of that instruction, then man received knowledge of good and evil, which were more instructions written in the heart of Adam that all revealed good and evil, which was a form of the Torah we have today, the Torah of Moses, which reveals good and evil. And in likewise manner Satan was given one instruction, which he also disobeyed, because of pride, which was, "worship the image of God", which was Adam, and because of his transgression he was expelled from heaven, which then lead to the expulsion of man from the garden of Eden because of their transgression as a result of the deception of Satan.

Because justification comes through belief, not by obedience, because we have all already disobeyed and only deserve death. Yet through that belief we must then obey, otherwise our belief is null, which is why after Abraham believed, he obeyed, and performed works proving his belief to be true. In likewise manner it is with us, after we believe in Yeshuah, it is necessary for us to obey the Torah. If we disobey the Torah, then our belief is null and worthless.

The Messiah, our Passover lamb has already been sacrificed. He who believes in him has already fulfilled the requirement of the Torah to keep the Passover. And in likewise manner, he who enters the millennial Shabbath through belief in the Messiah will fulfill the requirement of the Torah to keep the Shabbath. This is why Paul said to let no man judge us by the shadows of the Torah, which point to realities found in the Messiah. Yet "you shall not steal" and "a man shall not wear women's garments" and "you shall have righteous weights and quantities" are not shadows of the Torah, they must still be kept today.

Christians and the Law. 1 Timothy 1:9 "Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
1 Timothy 1:10 "For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;

the the apostle by the Holy Ghost said, "Knowing this", you don't have to go and try to find this out, it's a fact.
"the law is not made for a righteous man" and our righteousness is in Christ Jesus.

So when it pleases you Jesus is used by you.
Is your only problem with keeping the Sabbath?

You shall not steal is one of the 10 commandments.
A man shall not wear woman's clothing is not a commandment.
When Jesus walked this earth...when were wearing skirts and long dresses.
Do you think men should still be dressing as such today?

And you did not reply to my verse.
Mathew 5:20
20“For I say to you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven."

Yeshua said it so it must be important.
What does it mean?

Romans 2:13

Gal 5:4, Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

How do these verses reconcile? The answer is in my document. I will post the link shortly.

Thus the command to wear phylacteries (tefilin?) is also a shadow of the true. Romans 10:8 speaks of the substance.

In likewise manner it is with us, after we believe in Yeshuah, it is necessary for us to obey the Torah. If we disobey the Torah, then our belief is null and worthless.

Act 15:5, But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.

(
Act 15:2, When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question.)

Act 15:6, And the apostles and elders came together for to consider of this matter.
Act 15:7, And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.
Act 15:8, And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us;
Act 15:9, And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.
Act 15:10, Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
Act 15:11, But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.

A woman shall not wear a man’s garment, nor shall a man put on a woman’s cloak, for whoever does these things is an abomination to Yehovah your God.
Deuteronomy 22:5

You do not know the commandments of God, and neither do you want to. You are a disgrace of a believer, and this is why many believers will be cast out, because of torahlessness, which includes rejecting commandments such as this.

The circumcision of the flesh is the sign of the covenant of Abraham, not the sign of the new covenant of the Messiah, which is now the circumcision of the heart. This is why circumcision of the flesh is no longer necessary, and also why the second generation of the sons of Israel were not circumcised while they were in the desert, for they were under another covenant, the covenant of Moses, whose sign was resting on the Shabbath. The command of wearing tefillin is not a shadow command. It is a plain command given that we must still obey today. Just as affixing mezuzah also is, and just as wearing tallit and tzitzit also are plain commands that are required to be obeyed today. And although they are plain commands that must still be obeyed, they are lesser commands of the Torah. The more important commands of the Torah are giving to the poor, which we are also commanded to do, which many of you also refuse to do, and justify your refusal to do good works by saying, "we are not saved by works", as if to say, you are not obligated to do good works, although indeed the Torah commands it, and the Messiah also said, "every tree that does not bear good fruit will be cut down". All these lies you people like to mutter just shows how ignorant you people truly are as a result of your rejection of the Torah. Neither ceasing to do the evil the Torah forbids, and refusing to do the good the Torah commands. Torahlessness as its finest, exemplified in modern day believers who say "praise Jesus" yet live however they want to live in complete wilfull ignorance of the commands of God.

Of course you can sin without a Torah, why else do you suppose the men of Sodom were called "sinners",

Funny. I'm pointing out that sin doesn't exist without Torah law. Where there is no law, there is no sin. The law exists eternally as it is synonymous with God's will. God and his will are eternal. It is always and everywhere wrong not to love the lord your god with all your heart, mind , soul, etc.

the Passover, which is a "shadow" of the Torah, for under the new covenant we are not required to sacrifice a lamb every year, for the Messiah,

You could make the same claim with regards to observing it at all, or with regards to the last supper as well. The problem is that the Passover was always a day to remember our freedom from bondage, Christ's sacrifice doesn't negate, but affirms that fact.

our Passover lamb has been sacrificed, hence "shadow of the Torah", which Paul explained to let no man judge us by, for the "shadows" of the Torah are not required for us to keep under the new covenant, because they merely pointed to realities found in the Messiah.

Sure, but then that doesn't negate the law itself; just the sacrificial system. Here again, the glaring problem with your analysis is in not noticing that the sacrifice of Christ is to cover sins we commit. If we continue to commit sin, we must rely upon Christ's sacrifice. Therefore it is not done away with for those who continue to sin. It is only done away with those who have been regenerated, and no longer sin. As Paul puts it, "Those who walk after the Spirit do not fulfill the lust of the flesh".

And in likewise manner, he who enters the millennial Shabbath through belief in the Messiah will fulfill the requirement of the Torah to keep the Shabbath. This is why Paul said to let no man judge us by the shadows of the Torah, which point to realities found in the Messiah. Yet "you shall not steal" and "a man shall not wear women's garments" and "you shall have righteous weights and quantities" are not shadows of the Torah, they must still be kept today.

it's easy to conflate what is done away with, with what remains:

THE GREAT MORAL LAW
1. Called the "Law of the Lord" (Isa. 5:24).
2. Called "the Royal Law" (James 2:8,10-12).
(At the time James was writing, the Old Testament was considered the only Scripture.)
3. Will be the standard in the Judgment (Ja. 2:10-12; Rom. 2:12,13; Eccl. 12:13,14).
4. Written with the finger of God, on stone (Deut. 4:13; Ex. 31:18; Ex. 32:16).
5. Placed inside of the Ark in the Sanctuary (Ex. 40:20).
6. Points out sin (Romans 7:7). A mirror (James 1:23).
7. Where there is no law, there is no sin therefore the law existed before sin. (1 John. 3:4; Rom. 4:15). Lucifer sinned when he broke God’s law.
8. Is not burdensome (1 John 5:3). Called "the law of liberty" (James 2:12).
9. Is "holy, just and good" (Rom. 7:12).
10. "Till heaven and earth pass away, no part will be done away with or changed (Matt. 5:18)
11. Is perfect (Psalm 19:7; Romans 7:12).
12. Is "established" (Romans 3:31).
13. Is "the whole duty of man" (Eccl. 12:13; John 15:10.
14. Is built upon principles of supreme love for God and love for our fellow man (Ja. 2:8-12; Matt. 22:36-40; Deut. 6:5; Lev. 19:18).
15. Is written in our hearts by the Spirit of Christ when we accept Him by faith as our Saviour (Heb. 8:8-10; Rom. 2:15; 2 Cor. 3:3; Jer. 31:33,34).
16. Carries a promise ( Jer. 31:33,34; Gal. 3:29).
17. Converts the soul (Psalm 19:7).

THE CEREMONIAL LAW
1. Was called the "law of offerings and sacrifices." (Heb 9:9, Lev. 7:37-38).
2.
3. Judges no man (Col. 2:14-16).
4. Written by Moses in a book (2 Chron 35:12).
5. Placed in a pocket on the outside of the Ark (Deut. 31:24-26).
6. Symbolized Christ’s Act of sacrifice, and work of atonement (John 1 29,36).
7. Was added "because of sin" (Gal. 3:19).
8. Was a "yoke of bondage". (Gal. 5:1, Acts 15:10).
9. Was "carnal" or "fleshly". (Heb. 7:16).
10. Was taken away (Heb. 10:9), annulled (Heb. 7:18), abolished (Eph. 2:15), made obsolete (Heb. 8:13), changed (Heb. 7:12).
11. Was a "shadow" of the real "things to come" (Col. 2:17, Heb. 8:6, Heb. 9:9).
12. Is "obsolete" (Heb. 8:13).
13."Let no man judge you in regard to ... a festival or a new moon or (ceremonial) sabbaths, which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ" (Col. 2:16-17).
14.Is a beautiful prophecy of Christ’s death, resurrection, and Heavenly mediation.
15.
16.
17. "Made nothing perfect" (Heb. 7:19; Heb. 9:9).

It has been brought to my attention that you're addressing imaginary people on this thread. I'm the only other person posting on this thread at the moment, and you're obviously posting to someone else so I'll just bow out and let you resume your imaginary debate.

Funny. I'm pointing out that sin doesn't exist without Torah law. Where there is no law, there is no sin. The law exists eternally as it is synonymous with God's will. God and his will are eternal. It is always and everywhere wrong not to love the lord your god with all your heart, mind , soul, etc.



You could make the same claim with regards to observing it at all, or with regards to the last supper as well. The problem is that the Passover was always a day to remember our freedom from bondage, Christ's sacrifice doesn't negate, but affirms that fact.



Sure, but then that doesn't negate the law itself; just the sacrificial system. Here again, the glaring problem with your analysis is in not noticing that the sacrifice of Christ is to cover sins we commit. If we continue to commit sin, we must rely upon Christ's sacrifice. Therefore it is not done away with for those who continue to sin. It is only done away with those who have been regenerated, and no longer sin. As Paul puts it, "Those who walk after the Spirit do not fulfill the lust of the flesh".

No, transgression doesn't exist without the Torah, not sin. Sin exists without a Torah. This is why Paul said,

for sin indeed was in the world before the Torah was given, but sin is not charged where there is no Torah.
Romans 5:13

Yet sin is not charged if there is not Torah, because there is no command to transgress for there to be a charge, hence,

For the Torah brings wrath, but where there is no Torah there is no transgression.
Romans 4:15

Which is why the Torah was given, in order that there may be transgression, so that charges and wrath may justifiably be brought against those who sin,

Why then the Torah? It was added on account of transgressions...
Galatians 3:19

Which is why Paul told us that the Torah is the knowledge of sin, for it reveals what sin is, which already existed in the world, which is why before the command of the Torah of Moses was given that said, "a man shall not lay with another man", we already know that homosexuals existed in Sodom, who were called by the book of the Torah "great sinners", yet later when the Torah of Moses was given, they would've also been called "great transgressors", for their sin was also now transgression of the Torah given to Moses, which is why "sin is torahlessness",

…since through the Torah comes knowledge of sin.
Romans 3:20

What then shall we say? That the Torah is sin? By no means! Yet if it had not been for the Torah, I would not have known sin. For I would not have known what it is to covet if the Torah had not said, “You shall not covet.” But sin, seizing an opportunity through the commandment, produced in me all kinds of covetousness. For apart from the Torah, sin lies dead. I was once alive apart from the Torah, but when the commandment came, sin came alive and I died. The very commandment that promised life proved to be death to me. For sin, seizing an opportunity through the commandment, deceived me and through it put me to death. So then, the Torah is set-apart, and the commandment is set-apart, righteous, and good. Did that which is good, then, bring death to me? By no means! In order that sin might be shown to be sin, which through what is good worked out death to me, so that it might become sinful beyond measure, sin through the commandment. For we know that the Torah is aeolian, but I am of the flesh, sold under sin.
Romans 7:7-14

As such, the Torah of Moses is not "eternal", it is aeonial, because it only pertains to the aeons of this heaven and this earth, because it is a law of sin and death that was given to an earth where sin and death exists. Once this heaven and this earth passes away, all men will be made righteous entering into the new heavens and new earth, because the Torah of the airflow will be written in the hearts of all men, and all will already know what is good and what is evil without the need of a written Torah to reveal sin and also to punish it with death, for sin and death will no longer exist in the new heavens and new earth.

I advise you to read my bible study that explains the difference between sin and transgression and torahlessness, http://www.wisdomofgod.us/2019/07/11/the-difference-between-sin-transgression-and-torahlessness/ .

And also my bible study that explains why the Torah is still binding The Torah Has Not Been Abolished | Wisdom of God .

These things are not difficult to understand.
